An automotive manufacturer wants to know the proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over Domestic. Step 2 of 2: Suppose a sample of 675 new car buyers is drawn. Of those sampled, 270 preferred foreign over domestic cars. Using the data construct the 90%, confidence interval for the population proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic cars. Round your answers to three decimal places

The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic cars is (0.369, 0.431).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of , and a confidence level of , we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of .

For this problem, we have that:

90% confidence level

So , z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of , so .

The lower limit of this interval is:

The upper limit of this interval is:

The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion of new car buyers who prefer foreign cars over domestic cars is (0.369, 0.431).
